I strongly support the use of a carbon tax model, in lieu of cap
and trade for controlling emissions.
I have already seen examples of the misuse of the Cap and Trade
program as it is planned.
  A carbon tax is much more transparent, meets the need for  income
which can be used to clean up the effects of pollution, and a tax
works as a more direct motivation to polluters to reduce their
emissions.
   I do not think pollution should become a 'market' consideration
by allowing it to be a Wall Street commodity. There record is not
good.  I trust my government to design a tax code that is
consistent and effective in limiting pollution.
